Frozen yogurt popsicles made with fresh berries don't just taste great, they are good for you too! Fresh berries are some of the most powerful disease fighting foods, they are high in vitamin C and antioxidants.

I love freezing my smoothies in popsicle molds to make healthy summer snacks. I normally do just one flavor at a time but I thought it would be fun to make them into stripes. My original intention was to make these red, white and blue hoping the color of the fruit would achieve this naturally but the colors turned out more of a purple, white and pink. Still pretty and a great way to make colorful popsicles without adding food coloring.

My daughter has been begging me to make her some popsicles all summer, but she wanted to use Kool Aid (ick). This is a much better idea, and I think she will have fun coming up with the color ideas. I'm thinking we should add a little kiwi to the white yogurt layer - that would be so pretty! I'll be stopping at Bed Bath and Beyond to pick up some molds tomorrow. Thanks for the inspiration!!

I recently saw this recipe somewhere and its funny, I tried it a couple days back to wow the kids coming to a party at our house. They loved it so much that I said to myself that I have to share the recipe on my blog and today you posted on yours :-)Great recipe love it!!

Those Popsicle looked like they turned out pretty well. I have not made popsicles since I was a kid. I think I might just have to add this nice treat to the menu next time I eat. Thanks for posting the different recipes too.

These look so refreshing! Thank you for this idea. I'm so trying this. I've been seeing recipes that include sweetened condensed milk in the popsicle, but that is NOT the way I want to spend my calories.

Gina,Thank you so much for these wonderful recipes! I started using your recipes in January and since then I have lost 60lbs. I just started a blog to talk about my journey. Not too sure on how all this works. Here is the link for anyone who is interested in following me: livelaughloose.blogspot.com

I made these a for Independence day and they came out beautiful. My family was complaining about the seeds that were in the "blue" section of the popsicle. Next time I'll strain it before I freeze it and see if that helps.

I have reached the point where I NEED to do something and my daughter is thin, but wants to get into the best shape of her life in preperation for upcoming college cheer tryouts. Your site may just be the thing that allows us to reach our goals! THANK YOU for sharing!!!!!!

Oooh, you are hitting me where it hurts. I am a huge fan of popsicles. In fact I always have some in the fridge (just pour juice or yogurt into molds, freeze) so I can keep my daughter's occasional craving for sweets at bay.

My 13 yr old has been watching me search your sight weekly now for a while. We've made several recipes a week and loving each one. She decided to look for herself (since your site is permanent on my toolbar!) and found these. She made them yesterday and we love them. Thanks for all the yummy recipes and for getting my kid interested!

i just made these yesterday! so delicious! although i had to add some splenda to the purple and pink parts, there were a tad but tart. also i have for small molds (each have 4 popsicles, only a dollar a piece at kroger) so their even less calories per Popsicle <3

Gina thanks so much for the link and all the great recipes. I just ordered the popsicle tray from Amazon.ca. Can't wait for it to arrive so I can make the berry yogurt popsickles. I just started back to Weight Watchers and love the smoothies but this will be a new twist and a perfect healthy "treat"!

These were awesome. I would highly suggest straining the blackberry/blueberry mixture to get the seeds out. Those weren't that fun. My favorite was the vanilla part, and I think I'm going to make some pops out of just that part of the recipe. But the kids and I really enjoyed this, and have patiently waited all day to get to slurp them up!

I have never made this exact recipe, but it has inspired me so much.It never occurred to me to make popsicles from freezing smoothies but now I do it at least twice a week. It's a great cheap and healthy alternative to ice cream and my kids would have it for dessert every night if I had the time to make it.Thanks for the great idea. One day I may even make these pretty three-colored popsicles!
